When Sergio Lozano, the designer behind the Nike Air Max 95, was sketching the sneaker, he made a reverse/inverted version of the OG Neon colorway that never made it past the drawing board, that is, until now. Last night at the MoMA in NYC, Nike quietly released this sample sketch version of the Air Max 95.
With 2025 marking the sneaker's 30th birthday, The Swoosh has been going all out. Last week, the OG Neon was released at select retailers and will be available on SNKRS later this month. Alongside the original colorway, fan favorites like the Pink Foam are returning, and OG colorways like the Black Border from 1996 are getting a retro treatment for the first time in decades. We’re also expecting collaborative efforts throughout the rest of the year, including a Yu-Gi-Oh collection, another colorway from A Ma Maniere, and even a Nike SB version of the sneaker.
